God of the Ages

BP1971

A powerful setting of the beloved hymn, God of Our Fathers, using traditional NATIONAL HYMN hymntune the alternate text by Daniel C. Roberts. This piece is full of surprises from the a cappella opening phrase, through the 3/4 meter of the second verse and the modulation into the exciting third verse and “Alleluia, Amen” ending. A big arrangement, but attainable by the average church choir. Scored for SATB and piano. Available also as TTBB and piano in the collection Glory! (CC2).
